OLD FRIEND REVISITED Uploaded: 04/14/10 1:37 PM GMT

I was looking through some old photos and found this one of an old friend.
I have always been a big fan of air cooled VW’s.
It was back in the late 80s early 90s when I own this 67 VW Bus we use to haul all the radio control cars, trucks and equipment to race tracks all over California.
My wife, our two oldest their friends and I would head out every weekend to at least one race.
It was a good thing that I worked at a hobby shop at the time. LOL
The original photo was taken with a Minolta X-700 with a 50mm lens at F/8
Hope you like it.

Have a great one

All Apple Blossoms needs is a moonshine still, I've got lots more of early spring in the mts, in fact 600 but after I weed out all the duds it will be a lot less...thanks for your nice comment Sheldon!

Thanks Sheldon for your comments on "Fern Closeup". Glad you enjoyed it. I sort of cheated on the composition, this is actually made up of several different photos stitched together. I shot it using the macro mode of the camera and no one shot gave me a wide enough view. Have a wonderful week, ~Wendell.

My new series with farms, barns, horses,of old timey scenes of rural mountain folk of the Southeast USA sort of ran off the rails temporarily due to me being locked out.

I'm sure you have been to The Oconaluftee Mountain Farm Museum in the Great Smokey Mt National Park. I said
possum stew was for supper, but I've never had it. Do you have any idea what it taste's like?

Sorry I've been gone so long I lost my password and was locked out due to a big problem until today

Thanks for your nice comment!

Tallulah Gorge was much more impressive then I had expected. The river is really a pretty shade of green and the steep cliffs on both sides of the river are very rugged. Glad you stopped by Sheldon to look over the edge hope you aren't afraid of heights.
